Match Events
- 0' In just a few seconds Jan Breydel Stadion will turn into a battlefield for Club Brugge KV and Royale Union Saint-Gilloise.

- 10' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 10 minutes.
- 15' We miss some good tackles and strikes. Is there anyone on the field to put the game back to action?
- 17' Royale Union Saint-Gilloise player sees a card in front of him.
- 22' Royale Union Saint-Gilloise is defending very well tonight not leaving a chance for their rivals to get through for a goal.
- 27' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Joel Ordonez made 349 appearances and scored 3 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
- 31' Club Brugge KV is taking the lead after the goal scored by Hans Vanaken on 31.
- 36' Royale Union Saint-Gilloise looks like a favorite considering 2 games won in last 4 matches with its main striker Mateo Biondic scoring 1 goals.
- 38' What a strike from Joaquin Seys! The score is 2-0.
- 43' It’s a booking for Club Brugge KV player. Christos Tzolis gets a card.
- 46' GOAL! Hans Vanaken scores on 45.
- 51' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 4 times this season with Royale Union Saint-Gilloise winning 50% of all matches.
- 56' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Christos Tzolis suffering a number of foals already.
- 61' Kamiel Van De Perre has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 46 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
- 66' Royale Union Saint-Gilloise seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
- 67' Christian Burgess was booked on 67.
- 72' Spectators do not have much to choose from both teams. The sides had several scoring chances but they still need a bit more than just a sight of a goal.
- 77' Royale Union Saint-Gilloise started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 77.
- 82' Players seem to put ease on their energy level Spectators hardly appreciate such approach. Teams need to speed up the tempo.
- 87' Goal! Christos Tzolis scores his 54 goal in 167 matches.
- 90' GOAL! Kevin Mac Allister scores on 90. Assisted by Anouar Ait El Hadj
